About the London recruitment agency marketplace

We continually update our records to provide the most complete list of recruitment companies in London and around the M25.

How many London recruitment agencies are there?

The capital accounts for nearly a third of the entire UK recruitment industry. Agencies in the City of London make up 31% of the total market, while nearby Westminster and Mayfair have 6% and 5.7% respectively. We list more than 2,000 London job agencies, ranging from multi-sector staffing firms to niche industry specialists.

Why are there so many employment agencies in London?

As the UK capital and an international centre for business, the city attracts a global pool of leading candidates and employers. More than half of new jobs created are in the South East, and salaries are 61% greater than the country’s average. As a result, it’s unsurprising to see such a high concentration of London agencies. 

Every year, around 50% of all new recruitment businesses are registered in the region, confirming the city’s position as the most attractive location for UK recruiters. 

What sectors do recruiters in London specialise in?

There are around one million employers in London, with the largest sector being finance. While the city owes much of its success to this field, contributing £88 billion to the UK economy, other leading markets for recruitment include technology, accounting, executive/management and business support. As a global centre for study, graduate agencies in London are also commonly in demand.  

What is the future of the London recruitment industry?

While there are currently estimated to be around six million local workers, the city is expected to experience an increase of 1.2 million jobs by 2041. Healthcare and education are predicted to be the fastest growth sectors, while interim, contract and freelance opportunities are also anticipated to rise.
